The Corfe Castle Murders

Meet DCI Lesley Clarke. She's a straight-talking city copper who doesn't suffer fools gladly.

After being injured in a bomb attack, Lesley must undertake a period of respite in the calm of rural Dorset.

But things don't stay calm for long. Before she's even started her new job, Lesley is dragged into investigating a murder at one of England's most iconic landmarks, the imposing Corfe Castle.

Lesley must hit the ground running. How will she navigate the politics of a smaller force where she's a bigger, and less welcome, fish? Can she get along with her new partner DS Dennis Frampton, a traditionalist who doesn't appreciate her upfront style? And most importantly, can she solve the murder before the killer strikes again? The Corfe Castle Murders is a brilliant, character-driven mystery perfect for fans of Elly Griffiths and Ann Cleeves.
